Ex-Bears RB Garrett Wolfe has signed with the CFL's Montreal Alouettes.

A third-round pick by Chicago in 2007, the undersized Wolfe was a solid special teams contributor for four years, but never developed at tailback. Now going on 28, Wolfe spent the 2011 season with the CFL's Omaha Nighthawks. Mon, May 21, 2012 08:36:00 PM

Felony charges against free agent Garrett Wolfe of grand theft and resisting an officer with violence have been downgraded to misdemeanor.

The state attorney's office announced "no action" in Wolfe's case, which essentially drops the felony charges. The one-count misdemeanor charge is expected to be resolved in 30-60 days. Wolfe's record was clean prior to his arrest in May. The special teams ace's future with the Bears is up in the air. Tue, Jun 21, 2011 03:46:00 PM

Free agent Garrett Wolfe's future with the Bears is "definitely in question," according to the Chicago Tribune.

Last week's arrest certainly didn't help, but the larger problem is Wolfe's fit in coordinator Mike Martz's scheme. At 5'7/186, he's not big enough to protect Jay Cutler by shutting down blitzing linebackers on third downs. If the Bears cut ties with Chester Taylor, Wolfe isn't an option to replace him. His value is wrapped up in special teams coverage. Thu, Jun 2, 2011 02:23:00 PM

Free agent Garrett Wolfe reportedly asked a police officer to "compare bank accounts" with him during his Sunday arrest in Miami.

"Let's compare bank accounts," said an obviously drunk and cocky Wolfe during the apprehension. Wolfe's bar bill was $1,572, and he disputed the purchase of three bottles of champaign at Cameo Night Club in Miami Beach. Wolfe was at one point released to settle the tab before allegedly "lunging at an off-duty police officer," necessitating his immediate arrest. Mon, May 23, 2011 04:57:00 PM

The original-round tender is worth $1.907 million this year. Since Meredith is a former undrafted free agent, it means the Bears would receive no compensation if Meredith signed an offer sheet elsewhere and they declined to match. The receiver-starved Bears must be assuming Meredith's recovery from a torn ACL will chill his market. Meredith would have been the Bears' No. 1 receiver in 2017 if not for his preseason injury. He turns 26 in September.

Kevin White has been training with Mitch Trubisky in California this offseason.

"Kevin is working really hard to get back," said Trubisky. "I know he’s busting his tail to really do big things this year." White has appeared in just five games since being the No. 7 overall pick in 2015. He's currently rehabbing a shoulder injury he suffered last season, but White has been able to work on his routes and quickness. White won't be guaranteed anything in 2018, and the Bears are certain to add several receivers in the next two months. It's a make or break year for White.
